Hi Everyone. I have a very quick, and hopefully amusing post for you tonight! I have a couple of friends who are having "man trouble" which, considering my age, is pretty funny in and of itself. I thought I would only be having "those" sorts of conversations with friends when I was a teenager! You know, a couple of years ago! :-) So, I decided to whip up a quick card to show my support. I received this DSP with my SSS card kit this week and thought it would be perfect as a backdrop to an old Skipping Stones... Read more →
Hi Everyone. Happy Monday. Hope you are all managing to stay warm! Before I share my card with you tonight, I wanted to say a huge thank you to the design team at Unscripted Sketches or choosing this card as one of the three favorites last week. It was a very pleasant surprise when I went to get the sketch for this week and saw my card highlighted. What a great way to start my stamping day! Well, the sketch this week at Unscripted was another great sketch! I sat with it for a little while deciding what I was... Read more →

I used white embossing powder on a Basic Black base and then used copic markers to color the inside... Read more →
Hi Everyone. Happy Saturday. It's the fabulous Ann's turn to host the Paper Players challenge this week and she has an awesome sketch - with a little twist. I must admit, I had a lot of fun paying with the sketch: I loved the idea of the tag with the hidden message! I knew that I wanted to use a sentiment from Just Sayin' and pair it with a sentiment from For the Birds. The only thing I wasn't sure of..... what color to use. Mmmmm..... I decided to go through my DSP and came across this stunning piece of... Read more →
Hi everyone. Happy Tuesday. I have another quick post for you tonight with a card that I made for the casethissketch challenge It's a great sketch and knew that I wanted to use the "hello" sentiment from Four You. It really is one of my favorite SU sentiments - just in case you hadn't realized that by now :-) I like the size of the sentiment. I like the font. I wish there were others with this same clean font style! Now, "hello, flower" might not be a term with which you are familiar. But where I grew up, "flower"... Read more →
